Discover the Elegance of Unfurnished Doodles

What Are Unfurnished Doodles?

Unfurnished doodles are designer dogs that inherit the intelligence and temperament of Poodles but sport a smoother, less curly coat. Unlike their “furnished” counterparts, which have dense, curly or wavy fur requiring regular grooming, unfurnished doodles maintain a sleek, low-maintenance coat that sheds minimally. This makes them an excellent choice for those seeking a stylish pet without the hassle of constant grooming.

The Stokeshire Difference

At Stokeshire Designer Doodles, our mission is to blend the desirable traits of Poodles with those of other beloved breeds to create harmonious, low-shedding companions. Our Unfurnished GMD, AMD, and Bernedoodles are meticulously bred to ensure superior health, temperament, and aesthetic appeal for those who don’t love the “Doodle Look.”

Understanding Hypoallergenic Dogs

The Myth of Hypoallergenic Dogs

The concept of a hypoallergenic dog has been a topic of much debate and misinformation. According to Lockey (2012) in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, the notion that certain dog breeds are truly hypoallergenic is a myth. While some breeds may shed less and produce fewer allergens, no dog breed is entirely hypoallergenic. Allergens such as Can f 1, a primary dog allergen, are present in all dogs, regardless of their coat type or shedding patterns.

Furthermore, Johnstone (2021) from the American Kennel Club emphasizes that while low-shedding breeds like Poodles can help reduce allergen exposure, they do not eliminate it. Individuals with severe allergies may still experience symptoms despite choosing a breed marketed as hypoallergenic. Therefore, it is essential to manage expectations and understand that no dog can be completely allergen-free.

How Unfurnished Doodles Address Allergy Concerns

While no dog is entirely hypoallergenic, our Unfurnished GMD, AMD, and Bernedoodles are designed to minimize allergen spread. By maintaining a sleek, unfurnished coat, these doodles shed slightly less hair and dander compared to their non-poodle parent breeds, like Golden Retrievers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and Australian Shepherds. This reduction in shedding can lead to fewer allergens in your home environment, making our doodles a more suitable option for individuals with mild to moderate allergies.

Benefits of Choosing Unfurnished Doodles

Minimizing Allergens

While truly hypoallergenic dogs do not exist, our Unfurnished Doodles are engineered to produce fewer allergens. Their low-shedding coats help maintain a cleaner home environment, reducing the presence of pet dander. According to Lockey (2012), managing allergen levels involves more than just choosing a specific breed, selecting a dog that sheds less can be a significant step toward alleviating allergy symptoms.

Easy Maintenance

Unfurnished Doodles require less grooming compared to their furnished counterparts. A regular brushing routine and occasional baths are sufficient to keep their coats healthy and shiny, saving you time and effort. This low-maintenance aspect is particularly appealing to busy individuals and families.

Versatile Companions

Whether you’re looking for an active hiking buddy, a loyal family pet, or a calm companion for relaxation, our Unfurnished GMD, AMD, and Bernedoodles fit seamlessly into various lifestyles. Their adaptable nature ensures they thrive in both urban apartments and spacious homes.

Managing Allergies with Your Doodle

Good Housekeeping Practices

To further reduce allergen exposure, implement good housekeeping habits:

  • Regular Cleaning: Vacuum and dust your home frequently to remove loose hair and dander.

  • Air Purifiers: Use HEPA air filters to improve indoor air quality.

  • Designated Areas: Keep your doodle out of bedrooms to create allergen-free zones.

  • Hand Hygiene: Wash your hands after interacting with your dog to prevent the spread of allergens.

Allergen Immunotherapy

For those with severe allergies, allergen immunotherapy (allergy shots) can be an effective treatment. This medical approach involves gradually exposing the immune system to small amounts of allergens to build tolerance over time.

Choosing the Right Doodle

Spend time with different breeds to gauge your allergic reactions before making a decision. While Unfurnished Doodles are designed to minimize allergens, individual reactions can vary. Consulting with an allergist can also provide personalized recommendations based on your specific sensitivities.
